Short DescriptionPost-doctoral position in the emerging ethical, social, and/or legal aspects of nanotechnology

Detailed DescriptionThe Center for Bioethics at the University of Pennsylvania seeks a candidate for a post-doctoral position in the emerging ethical, social, and/or legal aspects of nanotechnology. Penn's School of Engineering and Applied Sciences was recently awarded an NSEC (Nanoscale Science and Engineering Center) grant, which will fund a broad-based basic-science program in nanotechnology. The position, funded by that grant, will involve an in-depth exploration of the ethical issues that emerge from the NSEC research, as well as a general study of nanotechnology. More here
